Either get a new battery or install a PowerPak12. It will take whatever juice is coming out of the batt and convert it to perfect 12V power. You would only connect your DSM unit to it and that will solve your problem. They are $218

Thanks for the reply. I will look into a better battery for my Deep cycle switch-over (house) battery. If that doesn't fix it, I will give you a call about that PowerPak12...Thanks...Don

Don,
Do you know the voltage on your batteries? Age, size and type of batteries? What did they test for you, voltage or load? You would need to have one heck of a lot of amp draw on standard batteries to go below 12 volts that fast. Check everything for tight connections.

Thanks John - I am going to be buying a new replacement deep cycle battery for spring and hopefully that will solve my problem...Don
